Occasionally when maybe we’d been good my mum or my dad would give us 10p and we used to go round to the corner shop – it was like atiny little shop that sold everything, especially sweets, there was a whole counter of sweets.

有时候，我们表现得好的话我的爸爸或者妈妈会给我们10便士。我们会去便利店——它们很小却卖超多的东西，特别是糖果，会有一柜台的糖果出售。

The sweets looked something like this: Cola Bottles and then Plastic Dummies, and Flumps. And Black Jacks -- they are the epitome of penny sweets.

糖果会有以下几种形状：可乐瓶糖果，还有塑料奶嘴糖和螺旋棉花糖。还有黑杰克糖果——它们是便士糖果中的典范。
